Okay, talking with the wife this weekend and as we picked up several pounds of shelled nuts for the holidays and started thinking about adding pecans to a wee-heavy or something of the sort. How would one go about that? Rack onto some pecans in the secondary perhaps? Quantities? We'll be doing a 2G batch of this test brew.

She suggested candied pecans for that sweet pecanish taste, but I'm less sure about that.

Fuggles/willamette/EKG are the classics I've tried, but I've been thinking of something different, maybe some Challenger or Target in there with Fuggles? I'm going to keep the biscuit to a minimum, I'm really not a huge fan of late.

Now you're talkin! I was talking with a friend about mashing pecans and it sounded awesome, but didn't know how the flavor would translate. So if we mashed for a 2G batch, how much pecan? Whole/crushed..... So many choices.

I may add a dash of pecan extract to one of the 1G primaries so we'll have a better experiment, see how the flavors come through.
